Well...I think ,I confused everyone :) , by using name Local
Transport. When both server and client in same machine there is a
performance improvement using Unix Domain Sockets [1].

If we are going to use Unix Domain Sockets with Axis2/C, definitely
there should be a server to listen up for incoming localhost
connections [2]. Therefore My suggestion was extend axis2_http_server
functionality for Unix Domain Sockets with a parameter in axis2.xml. 

Theoretically there is a performance gain in using Unix Domain Sockets
in local transport. I'm not sure whether there is a practical
performance gain.

thanks,
Dinesh
